Macaroon magic

I'll admit it...I've gone slightly crazy for the Revlon lip butters. Since getting my first two last week I have been on the hunt for more ever since. There seems to have been some delay in these being available from Boots store and my local one actually only has testers! I gave in, paid the postage and ordered the ones I wanted from Boots.com. They have now changed their deals from 2 for £10 to 3 for 2 which i shandy if you are wanting to buy a few different shades.

The shade I'm sharing with you today is 'Macaroon'. This is only available in the UK which is one of the reasons I wanted this! I would describe the colour as a dark red/pink shade with a subtle gold shimmer. It looks really flattering on the lips and not at all harsh. Depending on your lip colour, this could be a 'your lips but better' shade. Also if you are wary of red lipsticks this could be a great way to ease yourself into trying them.

As usual the formula is extremely moisturising on the lips and this shade leaves a lovely sheen. I'm suffering with a cold at the moment so have very dry lips and this product left them feeling very nourished and definitely didn't leave them looking dry.
